As a Licensed Psychologist and Board-Certified Behavior Analyst, I am passionate about helping individuals and families navigate the unique challenges and celebrate the distinct strengths that come with neurodevelopmental differences. My practice focuses primarily on supporting individuals with autism spectrum disorder, anxiety, and ADHD. I focus on neurodiversity affirming care. I believe in taking a comprehensive, individualized approach to therapy, recognizing that each person's experiences and needs are unique.
My approach integrates various evidence-based techniques, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, behavioral interventions, and mindfulness strategies. I focus not only on symptom reduction but also on enhancing overall well-being and helping you develop sustainable skills for long-term success. I also provide Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy.
In our work together, I hope you'll find a collaborative, supportive environment where your experiences are validated, and your goals are prioritized. I understand that seeking therapy is a significant step, and I am committed to creating a space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life.
